  • 7:00 PM
  • Virtual, Argonne National Laboratory

Argonne National Laboratory invites you to participate in the next installment of the OutLoud Lecture Series:

“The Five Ws of Quantum"

Much like the space race of the 1950s, there is a global race under way to advance the frontiers of quantum information science. Argonne National Laboratory is playing an integral role in the research and development of this exciting new technology which has the potential to revolutionize national and financial security, improve the speed of drug discovery, advance and scale advanced computing systems, and provide new career opportunities for the next-generation workforce.

Join two of Argonne’s leading scientists in quantum who will present on the Lab’s groundbreaking research and provide insight on what quantum information science is; why the development of this science and related technology is so important; when can we expect to see quantum technologies; where is quantum research being done in the Chicago region; and who are the partnering research institutions working with Argonne to make Chicago a national quantum tech hub?
